The arbitration of Martinez Munuera in the Real Madrid-Seville (2-2) of matchday 35 continues to raise blisters within the white club, which considers that the referee seriously harmed the team of Zidane in several key decisions (the penalty per hand of Militao that annulled a previous penalty on Benzema) to the point that it has weighed them down in the title fight.
Toni Kroos, who was already one of the players who most showed his anger on the pitch, spoke about what happened that day in the podcast he made with his brother Felix. “When you have the feeling that you are being harmed in this way, I can only say the following: it cannot be,” said the German midfielder, who is on leave after contracting the coronavirus.
“Seeing the replay and changing his decision, since he had not indicated a hand a priori, seriously influenced the fight for the The league”, He highlighted Kroos. “If in the end it is not enough, it will also be the fault of this situation. I have it clear. It's not that it leaves me with a bitter aftertaste, it's that it annoys me a lot ”, said the white 8, who perfectly understands the reaction Zidane asking Martinez for explanations Munuera after the game.
“He does not usually get wet with refereeing decisions, but that he went to see the referee as soon as the game was over is proof that he felt that he had been taken for a ride. And I also felt that way ”, he loaded Kroos. “The referee tried to justify himself but it was a full-blown error,” settled the midfielder.
